Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of wildlife can we realistically expect to see around Saw Tooth Rocks Camp, beyond the obvious park animals?

While Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park is teeming with kangaroos and emus, we love keeping an eye out for the smaller wonders near the camp itself. We've spotted echidnas snuffling through the undergrowth on early morning walks and heard the distinctive calls of western whipbirds echoing through the scrub. Don't forget to look up for the diverse birdlife; the mallee ringnecks are particularly striking.

We're planning a trip in spring. Is this a good time to visit Saw Tooth Rocks Camp, and what should we pack?

Spring is absolutely sensational for a visit to Saw Tooth Rocks Camp. The wildflowers are a breathtaking spectacle, and the weather is generally mild and pleasant for exploring. We recommend packing layers, as mornings and evenings can still be cool, and sturdy walking shoes are a must for those bushwalks. Don't forget sunscreen and a hat; the Australian sun is strong even in spring.

We found the communal dining area to be a warm and inviting space to share stories over a delicious meal, and the campfire under the stars is simply magical.

Safety is paramount, and the team at Saw Tooth Rocks Camp are excellent at briefing guests. We always advise sticking to marked trails when hiking and letting the camp know your plans.
